Michael G - Peachtree City, GA 30269 (18.4 mi) - Chess Tutor - $46.50/hr.
As a Facilitator for Western/Delta Air Lines, I was sent to a Training Mapping class in Los Angeles, Ca. to master writing training materials based on the Fogg Index of the trainees. I have also been a Substitute Teacher in the Fayette County School system from 2003-2008 in various grade levels (kindergarden to High School. The subject levels that I have taught range from art, mathematics, English, History, and Science. My repore with the younger generation is my forte. I have always enjoyed teaching at any level. One of my strengths
is to recognize the personality of the student and contour my style to that particular personality. In a class room setting, I would focus on a student that I feel is shy and afraid to speak. I would gently get them involved with simple questions to build their confidence so that others in the same realm would understand and overcome the fear associated wit

Paul B - Peachtree City, GA 30269 (19.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $43.50/hr.
A commercial banker by trade, I currently teach two (2) classes on financial literacy skills to legal immigrant refugees from India, Burma, and Cuba. This volunteer work is offered through the Catholic Charities arm of the Archdiocese of Atlanta.
I started teaching these classes roughly six (6) months ago on a volunteer basis, and the classes have been very well received thus far. The first class is entitled "Introduction to Banking", and teaches the fundamentals of personal banking (how to open a checking account, how to write a check, etc.). The second class is focused on family budget planning. Each class is roughly 1.5 - 2 hours in length, depending on the number of questions asked by the students.
In addition to the above, I have tutored a foreign immigrant from Turkey in pre-calculus and college-level English. I tutored this student on a volunteer basis for roughly two

Bill W - Locust Grove, GA 30248 (25.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $42.50/hr.
My teaching has primarily been at the university and corporate levels. I enjoy teaching individuals who are eager to learn and are open minded. I am patient to a point and I expect the student to continue asking questions until they fully understand the concept. I believe all individuals are a work-in-progress and both the student and teacher can benefit when both parties understand that increasing one's knowledge requires giving and taking. A highly focused, results oriented, and analytical Accounting Professional, with in-depth operational knowledge and understanding of accounting and accounting systems. Bill has over 15 years of accounting & management experience related to operational and system controls, and over 5 years in facilitating management development curriculum and teaching accounting principles and leadership development.

Elvia E - Fayetteville, GA 30214 (25.4 mi) - Chess Tutor - $40.50/hr.
The quality of education that I received has inspired me to give the same quality and better. Because my students bring a wealth of different knowledge and skills, I attempt to help them use that knowledge towards the topics learned.
Students learn better when they are able to apply the course materials to their own lives experiences which empowers them to articulate ideas and process concepts that reflect understanding of the materials. My students have ownership of their learing and I support my students by providing encouragement as well as useful feedback on their assignments in a timely manner.
I also value the diversity in my students' learning styles and I am committed to promote their knowledge development. As an adjunct instructor, I have the responsibility to provide to students a curriculum that covers the course objectives as well as to utilize related technology to

Keith S - Union City, GA 30291 (27.9 mi) - Chess Tutor - $41.50/hr.
For me, teaching began in my senior year of high school, where I would lead extensive calculus groups. After entering college, where I obtained a Batchelors degree in Applied Mathematics, I tutored pre-calculus and differential equations. I then began to tutor math to at-risk high school students. For a period of more than 2 years I taught computer-related subjects, particularly those that would enable students to obtain Microsoft certifications. Currently I teach and tutor all school mathematics subjects as well as SAT math. In my opinion my teaching would have to be considered unique. Usually I teach math in laymans terms and use analogie that students can relate to. Once the student understands the concepts I can then express the same ideas in the more rigorous mathematical terms. I also teach so that the student becomes active in his or her learning experience. I try to help

Richard M - McDonough, GA 30252 (33.7 mi) - Chess Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I love teaching and working with children. I try to make my lessons enjoyable for my students. I especially enjoy hands-on lessons where the students are very involved. I also like to use Constructivism in my classroom where I let my students create their own methods to solve problems. I very much want to be a positive influence in children's lives. I have taught three years of Elementary school in Georgia. I taught two years in third grade and most recently, I have taught fifth grade.

Jacob d - Forsyth, GA 31029 (34.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $37.00/hr.
Over the past three years, I have had the wonderful opportunity to tutor a wide variety of students on a part-time basis. I enjoy the challenge of transmitting information in a way that is both accessible and edifying. This experience, combined with a world-class education from Mercer University, enables me to engage students on a level not typically found with other tutors. My teaching style reflects the environment of a college classroom. Lessons are centered around unrestricted discussion of topic and formal lecturing. The most central part of my style , however, is guiding the student to realize the answer for themselves. Not only is this method more conducive to learning, it is an indispensable tool for boosting confidence.

John D L - Atlanta, GA 30311 (35 mi) - Chess Tutor - $38.00/hr.
My teaching style is somewhat unorthodox. I try to use as many styles as possible. I create activities and different opportunities for my students to learn so that they can achieve. I am a motivator and I try to relate real life experiences so that my students will see the benefits of education. My ultimate goal is to become a teacher who is effective at teaching to every type of learning style. Since choosing a career in education, I have been an enthused advocate, promoting opportunities for young people. I have gone as far as getting my Masters in Education Leadership. I also plan to get my PhD in the next couple of years. I have taken many workshops and trainings to become a more effective teacher.

Jameelah J - decatur, GA 30034 (37.4 mi) - Chess Tutor - $40.50/hr.
My teaching style is simple, whatever it takes! Working in the school system has given me the opportunity to work with all types of learners. Some students do well with a quick learning session, others work at a slower pace. I believe that teachers should work in conjunction with parents to tap into the nature of their childs learning habits and then utilize this information to make a comprehensive plan of action. Over the past ten years I have gained experience in education. As a high school student I volunteered to work at a couple schools. Shortly thereafter I began working as an after school tutor. I've worked in summer camps and currently work as a substitute teacher.

Chris R - Atlanta, GA 30312 (37.6 mi) - Chess Tutor - $40.50/hr.
The last five years have seen me working in research and development roles, but teaching math and science has always been a dream of mine and it is time for a career change. Having earned BS and MS degrees in materials engineering, my technical education as well as my career have provided almost daily practice of chemistry, physics, and mathematics. I want to not just teach students something, but also show them how and why it is relevant and useful. Aside from my technical background, I am also a semi-professional jazz guitarist of 20 years experience. I have played with many groups of various genres of music over the years, but jazz has been my primary passion since high school and I currently play with a jazz quintet named Style Points. As mentioned above, I want to demonstrate to students the real-world applications of scientific and mathematical principles. This will not only help t

Cydni M - Atlanta, GA 30316 (37.7 mi) - Chess Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I have five years of experience in teaching, childcare, mentoring and community service. My bachelor's degree in History from the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign indicates my highly developed verbal and writing skills. In addition, on a recent verbal teacher's exam, I achieved a score of 750/800. I plan to attend a Master's program in Middle-Secondary Education this year. As the oldest child of a family with seven, I have an intuitive understanding of child psychology and motivation. I have a sincere love for children, and I am pursuing a career as a teacher. The children I have worked with who have learning challenges have been the most influenced by my positive reinforcement. I focus the most attention on changing the way they think about learning, and keeping our approach simple. I practice the material with them as much as needed, reward progress and constantly rem

Talib D - Atlanta, GA 30312 (38.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $39.00/hr.
For five years, I was professor of World Literature/English Composition at Clark Atlanta University. For two years, I taught Literature/Composition at North Atlanta High School. During this time, I developed a linguistically oriented method of teaching writing that allows students to appreciate and exploit the instructive correlations between the writing and reading processes. Equipped with such knowledge, students developed not only the skill, but also the confidence required for successful writing. I use a differentiated instructional approach that is designed around the student's particular needs. After assessing the students needs and setting targeted goals, I develop a (lesson) plan to meet those targets.

Therefore, I have been able to apply my soical understanding in ways that promote growth and development for myself and those who are around me. Through my one year of service as a tutor in the Americorps National Service Organization I have learned how to work with students from many different segements of society, and also embrace the challenge of tutoring subects which fall outside my circle of experties such as math and science. While fufilling my duties as a graduate student and teaching assistant in my former university's History department, I have written and graded numerous short essays, research papers, as well as term papers. These experiences have also allowed me to develop my skills as a writer and proof reader. Therefore,through the years I have enjoyed tutoring students in the subjects of Eng

Larry D - Austell, GA 30168 (39.3 mi) - Chess Tutor - $41.50/hr.
As an accounting graduate and a college football player, I learned to have a good sense on how to study and hard work, both on and off the field. I had a great love for math throughout my schooling career and decided to go into accounting due to this. Even with a hectic schedule with football in college, I was still able to graduate exactly 2 weeks before 4 years with enough credits to be close to a finance degree as well. I took some graduate classes for my last semester and season before I left college. During this time in college I was able to tutor other players and students in Math and Accounting. I have had the pleasure of continuing tutoring in both of these subjects as well as individual taxes to people after college. Being a father to a 13 year old son, and having close friends with school age children, I have been able to teach some of my ways of doing math in subjects fro
